Better Then Lyrics

[Intro]

I close my eyes

It's like I'm still alive

Don't wake me up until

Don't wake me up until

The silent night

It tears me up inside

And I can feel you still

And I can feel you still



[Verse 1]

A bleeding heart

The things we left unsaid

The phantom in my head

The phantom in my head

A creeping thought

The joy that I can't find

It can't escape my mind

I can't escape my mind



[Chorus]

And I, now I hate to face the end

So could you let me just pretend?

I'd give up everything I've left

And I'll never know your like again

You were the best I'd ever been

I know that things were better then, then



[Verse 2]

The falling ash

You settle to the ground

I see you slipping down

I see you slipping down

A sinking ship

But I am weighed down from

The burden of your love

I wasn't good enough



[Chorus]

And I, now I hate to face the end

So could you let me just pretend?

I'd give up everything I've left

And I'll never know your like again

You were the best I'd ever been

I know that things were better then, back then



[Bridge]

And I was so wrong

And it's been so long

And it haunts me still

And I know you're gone

And I was too wrong

And it's been too long

And it haunts me still

And I know you're gone



[Chorus]

And I, now I hate to face the end

So could you let me just pretend?

I'd give up everything I've left

And I'll never know your like again

You were the best I'd ever been

I know that things were better then, back then

And god, how I fucking hate the end

So could you let me just pretend?

I've given all that I can give

And I'll never see your face again

Until I'm walking with the dead

So will you swear you'll meet me then?

Oh, then



[Outro]

And I, now I have to face the end

But could you let me just pretend?

Could you let me just pretend?
